The crisis in the ruling Nepal Communist Party may have been averted but the fault lines within have been exposed.

The no-confidence motion that had been filed against Chief Minister of Karnali Province Mahendra Bahadur Shahi on Sunday was scheduled to be discussed and voted on Tuesday but it was not even discussed in the provincial Parliamentary Party.

Party chair Pushpa Kamal Dahal and senior leader Madhav Kumar Nepal have reached an internal power-sharing deal to foil a coup against Chief Minister Shahi and save his provincial government.
